Is anxiety undermining your ability to enjoy yourself and feel safe in your relationships, at work, even in your own thoughts? Are you tired of feeling alert and tense all the time, not being able to stop that voice that keeps warning you of dangers and criticising your every step? Do you fear failure, rejection and abandonment? Are constant fights and lack of trust making your relationship or marriage a source of pain and frustration? Are you struggling with the emotional stress of facing infertility?

I have years of experience supporting folks facing negative beliefs, low self-worth, substance dependency, mental health challenges, and relationship issues.
I get it! Stepping into adulthood is tough, especially when struggling with relationships and questioning your self-worth. If self-doubt, stress, unhealthy relationships, or negative self-talk are weighing you down, you're making the right choice to seek support. Imagine a life where you feel grounded in who you are, free from constantly criticizing yourself, seeking outside validation, and not trying to meet everyone else’s expectations. Together, we’ll work towards building a lasting sense of self-worth, creating healthier relationships, and enhancing your overall well-being. You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone.

The stress of daily responsibilities, relationships, work, and emotions can feel like too much. Maybe you're at the start of a new job or a new city is feeling overwhelming. Perhaps you’re coming out of a relationship or just getting into one and feeling nervous. Maybe you’re tired of putting the needs of others ahead of your own. Have you been asking “Who am I” or “Where do I go from here”? Perhaps it’s a little bit of everything, all at once.

We use evidence-based principles to help your relationship get back to being fun and light again.
“If I really love my partner I should want to have sex with them…right?”; “There must be something wrong with me or with the relationship if I don’t want to have sex.”; “If they aren’t getting sex from me, they’re going to find it somewhere else…” Do any of these sound familiar? Do you have a running counter of the number of days since the last time you had sex, and every day that passes leads to more and more stress “it’s been too long, I’m going to need to do it soon…”

It takes a lot of courage to decide to seek support. We start where you are and go at a pace that is comfortable for you. I work with feminist and anti-oppressive perspectives. The areas around which I have experience include depression, anxiety, compassion fatigue, trauma, relationship violence, grief, issues around being queer, questioning your sexual orientation and transitioning genders, immigrant and refugee settlement, and culture shock. With clients, I primarily employ the evidence based approaches of Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work, Brainspotting, Attachment Theory, mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory.

I enjoy working with people of all ages. I have witnessed how art therapy can help people coping with life changes and challenges such as grief, loss, illness, injury, relationship and family issues, academic and professional pressures, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, sexuality and life transitions. Therapy, enhanced by the use of art therapy and mindfulness meditation (if desired) can help people process their emotions around difficult life situations and conditions and help people to heal, focus on living their authentic lives and thrive.

I have focused my work on supporting individuals identifying sex and relationship addiction issues, as well as challenges related to past trauma.
My passion is supporting individuals in overcoming struggles with avoidant behaviour and maladaptive coping patterns including addiction involving alcohol and drug use, or behaviours surrounding sex, pornography, and relationships. My goal is to help individuals gain a better understanding of, and ability to cope with, challenging life experiences including trauma, mental health difficulties, and family of origin pain. I teach strategies to manage overwhelming emotions, including combatting shame, anxiety, and depression, and skills to change problematic behaviours and challenge beliefs that keep you stuck.
